6. Commission Plan

1.bet-at-home.com agrees to pay the Affiliate Partner commission calculated using the new revenue generated by new customers recruited via the Affiliate Partner’s Website and/or respective sub-affiliate websites. The net revenue will be calculated using the following formula:

The commission will be the sum of a percentage of the net revenue accrued from the users directly attracted by the Affiliate Partner (level 1) and a percentage of the net revenue accrued from users recruited from the sub-affiliate websites.

New customers are bet-at-home.com customers who did not already have a betting account and accessed bet-at-home.com via the Affiliate Partner's website and registered and deposited real money to their betting account.

Commission plan:

The commission will be a share of the sum of the net revenue. The commission for each level is defined as follows:

Level 1: 30% of net revenue

Level 2: 10% of partner commission

Level 3: 5% of partner commission

Explanation of the levels:

Level 1: Customers directly registered through the Affiliate Partner.

Level 2: Customers registered through an Affiliate Partner who is already operative.

Level 3: Customers registered through an Affiliate Partner who is both already operative and was acquired through another Affiliate Partner who was already operative.

2. The commission is calculated at the end of each month and payments will be carried out by the 20th of each calendar month, provided that the amount due exceeds 50 EUR ('minimum threshold') and is requested in the affiliate programme. If the balance due is less than the minimum threshold, it will be carried over to the following month and paid out when the amount exceeds the minimum threshold.

3. A negative account balance at the end of the month is carried over to the following month.

4. The payment of commission is based on the method of payment chosen by the Affiliate Partner in the withdrawal request.

If an error is made in calculating the commission, bet-at-home.com reserves the right to correct such calculations at any time and will immediately pay out in the case of underpayment or reclaim funds in the case of overpayment to the Affiliate Partner.

use fictitious or alias names for the registration of sub-partners,

offer any type of enticement of money or of other monetary value to potential sub-partners unless such enticements are approved in writing by bet-at-home.com, or
